CSE president Paul Beckner wrote to senate majority leader Trent Lott (R, MS) and house speaker Dennis Hastert (R, IL), On behalf of our 250 000 grassroots members, I urge you to oppose the federal government's proposed lawsuit as well as any legislation to facilitate this unprecedented action.72 CSE members and staff contacted policymakers,73 drafted commentaries,73 ,74 aired ads75 ,76 and sent out action alerts against the case.73 (see online supplementary table S4) On 22 July 1999 Congress rejected DOJ's appropriation request.70 (The lawsuit was then funded by the Departments of Defense, Health and Human Services and Veterans Affairs.) The industry and its third-party allies failed to stop the lawsuit, which the DOJ filed on 22 September 1999.70 The next day, CSE's Michele Isele Mitola was quoted in the Washington Times : We see this as a political ploy to find ways to raise more revenue to fund their [the government's] tax-and-spend agenda.77 CSE continued opposition until at least 2002, encouraging supporters to ask newly elected President George W Bush to end the lawsuit.78 These efforts failed, with federal judge Gladys Kessler ruling in 2006 that the major cigarette companies and their affiliated organisations constituted a continuing racketeering enterprise to defraud the public.79 Opposing tobacco taxes CSE opposed state tobacco taxes (see online supplementary table S4)
